Resources

The Department of Archaeology maintains a wide array of resources and facilities to assist students with many aspects of their studies.  To ensure students in our department graduate from their degree well equipped to be a field archaeologist, we have a range of surveying, excavation, photographic and computing equipment that is available for students to use both during and outside of class times.  This includes items such as automatic levels, total station and EDM systems, a magnetometer, handheld GPS units, differential GPS unit, digital cameras, satellite phones, two-way radios, excavation kits and much, much more!  We also have arrangements in place to borrow specialist equipment held by other areas of the university, such as a differential GPS system from Geography and resistivity surveying equipment from Earth Sciences.  Other resources include our digital thesis collection, the departmental video library and state-of-the-art research and teaching laboratories.
